Welding Equipment Service in Wilmington, NC
Benton’s Welding Repair & Services Inc. is a professional welding equipment service in Wilmington, NC, specializing in gas regulator repair, torch refurbishment, and welding equipment restoration for distributors who need reliable, CGA-compliant work they can pass on to their own customers with confidence. We have spent over 50 years under local ownership perfecting the craft of refurbishing gas equipment. With over a hundred welding equipment and gas distributors from the Gulf up to Maryland our team takes pride in the work they do. Whether you need precise gas regulator repair or full torch refurbishment, our team is built to deliver equipment that performs like new.
Decades of Craftsmanship Behind Every Repair
We have been in this business since 1975, and our owner has personally worked in welding equipment repair since he was 19 years old. That kind of hands-on experience shows in every regulator that leaves our shop. We disassemble, clean, refurbish, and test each piece to strict CGA specifications and manufacturer guidelines, then shrink-wrap it for safe return shipping. This is not a quick patch job: it is a full restoration process designed to bring equipment back to a standard our distributor partners can trust and resell with confidence.
Our commitment to doing the job right, not the fast way, is part of why so many of our distributor relationships have lasted for years. We understand that when a distributor sends us a batch of regulators or torches, their own reputation is riding on the quality of our work.
Built for Distributors, Not Against Them
One thing that sets us apart is who we choose to work with. We are a B2B wholesaler at heart. We work with distributors who need a dependable repair partner behind the scenes, and we intentionally do not compete against our distributor customers for end user business. When you send us equipment, you are not handing your customer relationships to a competitor. You are partnering with a shop that wants your business to succeed alongside ours.
This philosophy has shaped how we operate for decades. We are not interested in playing both sides of the street by marketing directly to end users while also serving distributors. We would rather be the trusted repair partner working quietly behind your brand.

A Regional Reach With a Local Foundation
While we are proud to be based in Wilmington, North Carolina, our reach extends well beyond the local area. We currently work with distributor partners from the Gulf Coast up through Maryland, and we are open to building new relationships with distributors in Florida as well. Our focus stays on distributor and vendor accounts rather than direct-to-consumer retail work, particularly within North Carolina, where we already have established distributor relationships we do not want to compete against.
If you are a distributor located anywhere along this corridor and you need a dependable partner for gas regulator repair and torch refurbishment, we would welcome the opportunity to build a working relationship with you.
How We Build Relationships With New Distributors
We know that trusting a new repair shop with your equipment is a real decision, which is why we make it easy to test the waters. Our process typically starts with:
- Sending distributor prospects information about our repair capabilities and process
- Following up personally by phone to answer questions
- Offering a free repair so new partners can see our workmanship firsthand
- Building a long-term working relationship based on consistent quality and communication
This is not a call center approach. Our owner personally handles outreach and follow-up, because we believe relationships built on direct communication tend to last.
